Yes, Semantic Tags should be non information resources to ensure that
there isn't a collision between someone using the same URI, but
intending it to be treated as a document rather than a concept.

I would include the oa:Tag to make it clear that the text is a tag,
and not a comment.

I'm a little more optimistic. But without inventing lots of new
predicates (like we had with hasSemanticTag previously) and then also
for the multiplicity constructs, we can only do our best to recommend
good behavior.  Hopefully also there won't be many collisions, as it
seems unlikely that the document being used to tag something would
also be used as the body of an annotation where it was meant as a
comment or description.

We could certainly reintroduce it.    I'm in favor of having more
motivations, rather than fewer, to prevent future collisions where
multiple communities all mint something rather basic.  If I recall
correctly, it was seen as too similar to oa:annotating, which we now
don't have any more.

How about:
oa:linking  The motivation that represents an untyped link to a
resource related to the target.
